Updates - and Easter greetings

Thank you for prayers for my mother. Though she was very close to death last Wednesday, with a doctor telling us to get into town because it looked like the end, she made it through the night and began to improve. After a few days in the hospital, she returned home. She has home health care nurses each day spending a few hours with her as well as hospice checking in on her each day. Because of the condition of her lungs it could be any time, but the imminent danger appears to be past.

Karen continues to gain more energy and is even looking at job opportunities again. Ovarian cancer is a chronic disease and it's a matter of keeping it away. In all likelihood, it will recur. We have faith. That - and changes we make in our lifestyles - is all any of us has control over.

We're spending Easter here with our dear friends the Sanders. Have a happy, safe, and enjoyable Easter.
